Heynen 4 The National Archives National Archives and Records Service General Services Administration Washington: 1971 Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 70-182578 Foreword The General Services Administration, through the National Archives and Records Service, is responsible for administering the permanent noncurrent records of the Federal Government. These archival holdings, now amounting to more than 900,000 cubic feet, date from the days of the First Continental Congress and consist of the basic records of the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of our Government. The Presidential libraries of Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson contain the papers of those Presidents and many of their associates in office. While many of the archival holdings document events of great moment in our Nation's history, most of them are preserved because of their continuing practical use in the ordinary processes of government, for the protection of private rights, and for the research use of scholars and students. To facilitate the use of the records and to describe their nature and content, archivists prepare various kinds of finding aids. The present work is one such publication. We believe that it will prove valuable to anyone who wishes to use the records it describes. Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2019 with funding from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign https://archive.org/details/cartographicreco2819heyn Preface Special lists are published by the National Archives as part of its records description program. The special list describes in detail the contents of certain important records series, that is, units of records of the same form or that deal with the same subject or activity or that are arranged serially. Its form and style are not fixed but vary according to the nature of the records to which it relates. Its distinguishing characteristic is that it goes beyond the general description contained in a record group registration statement, a preliminary inventory, or an inventory, and describes records in terms of individual record items. In addition to lists and other finding aids that relate to particular record groups, the National Archives publishes some that give an overall picture of materials in its custody. A comprehensive Guide to the Records in the National Archives (1948) and a brief guide, Your Government’s Records in the National Archives (revised 1950), have been issued. A guide devoted to one geographical area— Guide to Materials on Latin America in the National Archives (1961)—has been published. Forty-five Reference Information Papers, which analyze records in the National Archives on such subjects as transportation, small business, and the Middle East, have so far been issued. Records of the Civil War are described in Guide to Federal Archives Relating to the Civil War (1962), Guide to the Archives of the Government of the Confederate States of America (1968), and Civil War Maps in the National Archives (1964); those of World War I in Handbook of Federal World War Agencies and Their Records, 191 7-1921 (1943); and those of World War II in the two-volume guide. Federal Records of World War II (1950-51). Genealogical records are described in Guide to Genealogical Records in the National Archives (1964). Among the holdings of the National Archives are large quantities of audiovisual materials received from all sources: Govern¬ ment, private, and commercial. The Guide to the Ford Film Collection in the National Archives (1970) describes one of the largest private gift collections. Many bodies of records of high research value have been microfilmed by the National Archives as a form of publication. Positive prints of these microfilm publications, many of which are described in the List of National Archives Microfilm Publications (1968), are available for purchase. f ' .

They consist of 4,361 items, including maps, atlases, and graphs, and are part of the Records of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, Record Group 83. The textual records of the BAE have been described in Vivian Wiser, comp., Preliminary Inventory of the Records of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, PI 104 (1958). The BAE was established under the Department of Agriculture on July 1, 1922, by a merger of the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates and the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. Before 1922 the function of estimating crop acreage and yields had been centered in the Bureau of Crop Estimates, established in 1914. An Office of Markets, established in 1913, had been assigned studies of methods, costs, and other agricultural marketing problems. In 1921 these two units were combined to form the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates, one of the organizations from which the BAE was formed. The Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics, the other predecessor agency of the BAE, was established in 1905 within the Bureau of Plant Industry as the Office of Farm Management. In 191 5 it became a separate office under the Secretary of Agriculture, and in 1919 it was renamed the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. At first this Office studied farm practices, but in about 1910 it began to emphasize agricultural economics, eventually encompassing the study of agricultural geography. In 1921 and 1922 the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates and the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics were gradually consolidated to form the BAE under the authority of the Agricultural Appropriations Act for fiscal year 1923 (42 Stat. 532). For most of the next three decades the BAE served as the central statistical and economic research agency of the Department of Agriculture, collecting, analyzing, and publishing a wide variety of data about agriculture and rural conditions in the United States and the rest of the world. Initially the BAE was organized into divisions which for the most part continued the work done in the predecessor agencies. Units concerned with farm production were the Divisions of Farm Management, Cost of Production, and Crop and Livestock Estimates. Those concerned with marketing were the Divisions of Cotton; Livestock, Meats, and Wool; Grain; Fruits and Vegetables; Hay, Feed, and Seed; Dairy and Poultry Products; Warehousing; City Markets; and Cost of Marketing. Other units included the Divisions of Agricultural Finance, Land Economics, Statistical and Historical Research, Farm Population and Rural Life, Agricultural Cooperation, and Information. Between 1922 and 1938 the BAE underwent several administrative changes until by 1938 its work had expanded to include the fields of marketing regulation, the administration of local projects, and other service activities. These changes involved the merger of the Division of Farm Management and the Division of Cost of Production to form the Division of Farm Management and Costs in 1924, the establishment of the Division of Foreign Agricultural Service in 1930, and the establishment of the Tobacco Section and the Division of Marketing Research in 1934 and the Division of Transportation in 1938. In addition, the land utilization program and staff of the 1 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE 2 Department of Agriculture’s Resettlement Administration were transferred to the BAE in 1937, and three new divisions and a regional organization were created within the BAE to administer the land utilization program. In 1938-39 the BAE. while retaining some of its research responsibilities, was reconstituted as the general planning agency for the Secretary and Department as a whole. By Secretary of Agriculture’s Memorandums 782, 783, and 785 of October 6, 1938, the work of the BAE was simplified and consolidated, and unrelated functions were transferred to other units of the Department. Work in agricultural statistical estimates and marketing research and regulation was transferred to the new Agricultural Marketing Service, and the administration of the land utilization program was assumed by the Soil Conservation Service. Conversely, the functions of the Program Planning Division of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration were transferred to the BAE’s new Division of State and Local Planning, and three new divisions—the Divisions of Program Surveys. Program Study and Discussion, and Program Development and Coordination were created to carry out central program planning for the Department. During the early 1940’s interest in perpetuating the BAE as the central planning agency waned, and its role as the chief source of agricultural and economic information was reemphasized. Planning functions were gradually transferred to other units or abolished. In 1942 all State and local planning in the BAE was discontinued. Responsibility for collecting crop and livestock statistics was restored, and the BAE again served as the primary agency in the Department of Agriculture for collecting and disseminating agricultural statistics and economic data. In 1945 the program planning work was transferred from the BAE to the Office of the Secretary. On November 2, 1953, by Secretary’s Memorandum 1320, Supplement 4, the BAE was abolished. The work of the Divisions of Farm Management and Costs, Land Economics, and Agricultural Finance, and the farm labor work of the Division of Farm Population and Rural Life were transferred to the Agricultural Research Service; the remainder of the BAF’s functions were transferred to the Agricultural Marketing Service. In 1961 work in agricultural economics was centralized in the Economic Research Service. The drafting and reproduction of maps and charts at the BAE was essentially the job of the Graphics Section. At its establishment in 1922 the BAE acquired the cartographic draftsmen of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. In that year the Graphics Section was assigned to the Division of Statistical and Historical Research. In the following years the section was administered by the Office of the Business Manager, the Division of Statistical and Historical Research, and the Division of Business Administration. By 1941 the Graphics Section had become part of the Division of Economic Information, which earlier had assumed responsibility for photographic reproduction and publication of maps and charts. From 1922 the Graphics Section was successively headed by R. G. Hainsworth, the former head draftsman of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics, G. C. Haas, and T. D. Johnson. From about 1925 until the 1940’s Hainsworth again supervised the section. He personally drafted a number of maps during the 1920’s and 1930’s, and in 1926 he authored a bulletin entitled “Graphic Methods.’’ Hainsworth left the BAE during World War II to become cartographer and chief economic geographer for the Office of Foreign Agricultural Relations, and in the early 1950’s Robert Turnure headed the section. INTRODUCTION 3 During the years of the BAE’s existence the Graphics Section gradually became involved in cartographic work for other agencies under the Department of Agriculture. Its increasing responsibility for map production can be measured by its growth: 11 draftsmen in 1922, 15 in 1925, 18 in 1927, and by 1939, as a consequence of the BAE’s expanded programs in land use planning, the number had increased to 30. Individuals and groups within the separate divisions compiled many of the maps and did some of the drafting. In the Division of Land Economics, for example, Francis J. Marschner was a skilled and prolific cartographic draftsman, geographer Oliver E. Baker initiated numerous mapping projects, and Carleton P. Barnes prepared several maps while a member of the Division during the early 1930’s. In the Division of State and Local Planning, a Service Unit had the task of transferring cartographic information from county to national maps. The Division of Farm Management mapped local and national type-of-farming areas, and a cartographic section was attached to the land utilization program for the short time it was under the BAE’s administration (1937-38). In addition, cartographers located in the regional offices of the BAE prepared a number of regional maps and cooperated in mapping programs of the central office. The maps described in this list represent only a part of the cartographic work of the BAE over its 31-year history. Very few maps from the 1945-53 period are among the BAE files of the Cartographic Archives Division. In addition, a number of maps the BAE compiled or accumulated are interfiled among its textual records and have not been described in this list. 1 Included among the cartographic records of the BAE-are maps from one of its predecessor agencies, the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. These records, created before the BAE was established in 1922, are arranged and described as a separate unit. No cartographic records created by the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates have been found. Related cartographic records can be found in several other record groups in the National Archives. Maps relating to postwar planning committees and the water facilities and flood control examination program and published maps and atlases prepared partially by BAE personnel are in Records of the Office of the Secretary of Agriculture, Record Group 16. Most of the maps pertaining to the land utilization program have been centralized in the Records of the Soil Conservation Service, Record Group 114. Other related cartographic records are among the following: Records of the Bureau of Plant Industry, Soils, and Agricultural Engineering, Record Group 54; Records of the Forest Service, Record Group 95; Records of the Farmers Home Administration, Record Group 96 (formerly the Resettlement Administration and the Farm Security Administration); Records of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, Record Group 145 (formerly the Agricultural Adjustment Administration or Agency); Records of the Office of Experiment Stations, Record Group 164; Records of the Foreign Agricultural Service, Record Group 166; and Records of the National Resources Planning Board, Record Group 187. The descriptive entries in this list are arranged by organizational units. Under each unit most of the entries are arranged geographically: those maps covering broad areas, such as the entire United States, are listed before maps covering smaller regions, and State maps precede county maps. Where this arrangement is not appropriate, entries are grouped chronologically or according to similarity of subject matter. Maps that cannot be identified with a specific section of a division and a few maps concerning the activities of the BAE as a whole are included under “General Records.’’ Because O. E. Baker and F. J. Marschner were outstanding contributors to the cartographic and geographic work of the BAE, the maps they compiled or originated as members of the Land Utilization Section of the Division of Land Economics have been arranged under their names. 4 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE The date given for each entry is the date of compilation or publication rather than the period the map or maps cover; “n.d.” is used if the compilation date is not known. Following the appendixes are a subject-name index and a geographic index to the maps. The cartographic records described in this list may be examined in the research room of the Cartographic Archives Division in accordance with regulations issued by the Administrator of General Services. The National Archives is equipped to provide photostats and photographs of the maps in its custody, and information about the cost of reproductions will be provided upon request. A number of entries in this list were drafted in preliminary form by Charlotte M. Ashby and Janet L. Hargett. Records of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics Early work in farm management surveys began in 1902 under the direction of W. J. Spillman, chief agrostologist in charge of the Division of Grass and Forage Crop Investigations in the Bureau of Plant Industry. In 1905 the Office of Farm Management was established within the Bureau of Plant Industry, with Spillman as Chief. The Office of Farm Management was transferred to the Office of the Secretary of Agriculture in 1915. After Spillman’s resignation in 1918, the recommendations of a committee of workers in the field of farm economics led to a reorganization the following year. The name of the Office was changed to the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics, and its research functions were expanded from farm management and practices to include cost of production, farm labor, farm finance, land economics, agricultural history and geography, and rural life. In 1920 it became an independent office. When the BAE was created in 1922, research on farm management and types of farming regions was assumed by the new Division of Farm Management in the BAE. The mapping projects developed in the former Division of Agricultural History and Geography were continued in the Divisions of Land Economics and Statistical and Historical Research. GENERAL RECORDS 1. Published land classification quadrangle maps of the Seattle and Takoma, Wash., areas, showing extent of forested land. 1897. 2 items. U.S. Geological Survey quad¬ rangles based on surveys of 1894-95 and published in 1897. Acquired by the Office of Farm Management at an unspecified date, the maps are stamped “Farm Management Investigations Library.” 2. Manuscript maps of the United States compiled from studies of truck farming in 1898. ca. 1900. 27 items. A few of the maps may be incomplete. There is a separate map for each crop. A number is stamped on each map in the appropriate State to show acreage devoted to the crop, and dots are drawn in those counties in which the crop is grown commercially. Some of the maps also show amounts produced, and the last two refer to the industry as a whole. The maps are arranged in the original file order as follows: dry beans, cranberries, onions, cauli¬ flower, green beans, green peas, muskmelon, tomatoes, lettuce, asparagus, eggplant, kale, parsnips, rhubarb, radishes, celery, cucumbers, sweet corn, cabbage, spinach, squash, potatoes, Irish potatoes, truck crop and canning industry, and glass area used by growers. 3. Maps compiled by W. J. Spillman relating to grass and forage plant investigations. ca. 1905. 25 items. Manuscript dot maps of the United States, including a map showing distribution of cattle in the western range country; a series of maps showing localities reporting significant produc¬ tion of bunch grass, carpet grass, crabgrass, crimson clover, crowfoot, grain and cowpeas cut for hay, Kentucky bluegrass, meadow fescue, millet hay, red clover, red top, and sorghum, kafir, and maize; a series of maps based on the 1900 census showing acreage distribution of corn, cotton, hemp, hops, kafir corn, oats, peanuts, and peas; and two maps showing the acreage of corn and forage crops in ihe Southeastern United States. Spillman conducted early research on grasses and forage crops in the United States and promoted the establishment in 1895 of the Division of Agrostology, a separate unit within the Department of Agriculture which prepared studies of the geo¬ graphical distribution, adaptability, and uses of grasses and forage plants. In 1901 Spillman became the Chief of the new Office of the Agrostologist in the Bureau of Plant Industry. From 1905 to 1918 he headed the Office of Farm Management and remained on the staff of the Division of Farm Management and Costs when the BAE was established. 5 6 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE Thirteen of the maps in this entry were published in W. J. Spillman, Farm Grasses of the United States (New York, 1905). These maps are among the earliest to make use of the dot method of cartographic representation, and they set an example for the later agricultural cartography of Henry C. Taylor and Oliver E. Baker. [See entry 19 and H. C. Taylor, The Story of Agricultural Economics (Ames, Iowa, 1952), p. 303.] 4. Unidentified manuscript maps relating to hay investigations. ca. 1908 4 items. Three base maps of the United States marked “Hay - McClure,” with numer¬ ous counties and parts of counties colored in red, orange, or green, and one duplicate map, all without explanation. Harry B. McClure was a specialist in charge of hay investigations in various parts of the country for the Office of Farm Management in the years 1907-14. In 1923 he was head of the Hay Standardization Section of the Hay, Feed, and Seed Division, one of the newly established marketing divisions in the BAE. The functions and records of this Division were later transferred to the Agricultural Marketing Service. DIVISION OF AGRICULTURAL HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY Most of the cartographic records of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics were created in its Division of Agricultural History and Geography. Work was begun with the appointment of the geographer Oliver E. Baker in 1912 and the establishment of a Section of Geographic Factors (later called the Section of Agricultural Geography). Sometime thereafter the historian Oscar C. Stine was appointed, and in 1919 the Division of Agricultural History and Geography was formed under the leadership of these two men. The duties of the Division consisted of compiling historical and geographical data to create a better understanding of agricultural problems. Studies included the effects of economics, physiographic conditions, and foreign competition on past production and prices and the shifting geographic patterns of crops and population. Encouragement for these studies came from Henry C. Taylor, who was an agricultural economist at the University of Wisconsin before becoming Chief of the Office of Farm Management in 1919 and of the BAE in 1922. Beginning in 1913 work centered on the preparation of the Atlas of American Agriculture, which was published in sections beginning in 1918 under Baker’s direction. Although the atlas originally was planned to include types of farms, farm labor, crop patterns, land utilization, and rural population, in its final published form (1936) its scope was narrowed to the presentation of physical conditions affecting agriculture. (A copy of the 1936 volume is in Records of the Office of the Secretary of Agriculture, Record Group 16.) On July 1, 1921, the history and geography sections began for a brief period to operate as separate divisions. Stine, as head of the History Division, emphasized economic history and foreign agriculture, and Baker, as head of the Geography Division, continued to map the existing agricultural patterns of the United States. When the BAE was officially established on July 1, 1922, Stine was made Chief of the Division of Statistical and Historical Research, and Baker became head of the Land Resources and Land Utilization Section of the Division of Land Economics. Cartographers contributing to early mapping projects included R. G. Hainsworth. who later became chief draftsman for the BAE, and F. J. Marschner, who joined the Division of Land Economics as chief cartographer. 5. Published map of the United States showing irrigated areas in the Western States. 1915. 1 item. Compiled from 1910 census data, revised in 1914 by the Irrigation Division of the Office of Experiment Stations, and reduced and drafted in 1915 by the Section of Agricultural Geography. 6. Topographic relief maps of the United States compiled by F. J. Marschner for publication in the Atlas of American Agriculture. 1915. 5 items. Three manuscript worksheets showing topography, drainage systems, and bound¬ aries and place names; a published copy of the topographic map combining the above three elements. OFFICE OF FARM MANAGEMENT AND FARM ECONOMICS 7 scale 1:8,000,000; and another published version with the addition of altitudinal tints, a copy of which was included in the final atlas. For other maps by Marschner, see entries 147-173. 7. Maps prepared for the Atlas of American Agriculture relating to climate. 1915-18. 27 items. Manuscript maps and work¬ sheets prepared for sections of the atlas entitled “Frost and the Growing Season,” by William G. Reed, published in 1918, and “Precipitation and Flumidity,” by J. B. Kincer, published in 1922. The maps were prepared in cooperation with F. J. Marschner. Included are large-scale base maps of the United States annotated according to Weather Bureau records to show average annual, seasonal, and monthly precipitation based on the 1895-1914 period; mean temperatures for the summer months; the average length of the frost-free season and data on the shortest growing season; and the earliest and average dates of the first killing frost in autumn and the earliest, average, and latest dates of the last killing frost in spring. In addition, there are three incomplete maps, one of which shows locations and altitudes of recording stations in the United States. Published copies of the two sections of the atlas are in Records of the Office of the Secretary of Agriculture, Record Group 16. 8. Advance section of the Atlas of American Agriculture entitled “Rural Population.” 1919. 1 item. An article with maps, tables, and descriptive text published in 1919 but not included in the final version of the atlas. Some of the maps show by county the distribution of rural, village, and urban population in the United States in 1910. Others show information on rural population, including changes in distribution from 1900 to 1910, its relationship to the total population, Negro and white distribution, ethnic distribution (by country of origin of the foreign-born or those of foreign parentage), education and literacy levels, and the proportion unable to speak English. Tables give the 1900 and 1910 population for each State and county. Compiled by E. Goldweiser under the direction of O. E. Baker. 9.

Maps of the United States showing the histori¬ cal distribution of crops and livestock from 1839 to 1919. ca. 1912-23. 217 items. Manuscript dot maps based on the decennial censuses of agriculture, the first of which was taken in 1839. The information is plotted on county outline base maps, and there is a separate map for each crop and animal for each decade. In some cases worksheets and preliminary copies of maps duplicate information or provide slightly differing versions. These maps, prepared under the supervision of O. E. Baker, were originally intended for inclusion in the Atlas of American Agriculture but were not published in the final reduced version. They were an outgrowth of an original series of such maps compiled for the first time from 1909 to 1912 by Henry C. Taylor while he was at the University of Wisconsin. (See H. C. Taylor, The Story of Agricultural Eco¬ nomics, pp. 303 and 316-19.) Many of the maps were used to illustrate the series of 30 historical and geographical articles appearing in the yearbooks of the Department of Agriculture for the years 1921-25, published under the supervision of Taylor and written by Baker, O. C. Stine, W. J. Spillman, L. C. Gray, F. J. Marschner, and others in the Department of Agriculture. Small-scale versions of a few of the earlier maps (1839-59) were also published in Percy Bidwell and John Falconer, History of Agriculture in the Northern United States, 1620-1860 (Washington, 1925). Arranged in two categories, crops and livestock, thereunder alphabetically, and thereunder by decade. A list of the crops and animals covered follows; chronological coverage from 1839 to 1919 is com¬ plete unless stated otherwise. Maps covering the period 1919-35 are described in entry 121. Crops. Distributions are shown in units of production, such as bushels or tons: alfalfa (1889 and 1919 only), apples (1889 to 1909 only), barley, corn, cotton (1909 missing), flaxseed (1869 missing), grapes , hay, hops, (1919 missing ), oats, peas and beans (1839 and 1919 missing; separate informa¬ tion for peanuts, Canada peas, and cow peas is included), peaches and nectarines (1889 to 1909 only), potatoes (1919 missing), rice, rye, sweet potatoes (1839 missing), tobacco, and wheat (1919 missing; separate 1869 maps show spring and winter wheat).

DIVISION OF FARM POPULATION AND RURAL LIFE In 1919 a Farm Life Studies Section was established in the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics to continue studies formerly carried on in the Bureau of Markets. When the BAE was established in 1922, the Farm Life Studies Section became the Division of Farm Population and Rural Life. In 1939 the name was changed to the Division of Farm Population and Rural Welfare, and in 1947 it was rechanged to the Division of Farm Population and Rural Life. The functions of the Division included research and planning in the areas of population estimates, migration, human geography and settlement patterns, community and local organizations, standards of living, farm labor and disadvantaged classes, social psychology of the farmer, and the history and influence of farmer’s movements and organizations. When the BAE was abolished in 1953, the Division’s farm labor research function was transferred to the Agricultural Research Service, and the remainder of its functions were transferred to the Agricultural Marketing Service. 41.

The name was changed to the Bureau of Crop Estimates in 1914, and it was merged with the Bureau of Markets in 1921. In 1922 the combined Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates was merged with the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics to form the BAE. Estimating functions were assigned to the Division of Crop and Livestock Estimates. In 1938 the Division was transferred to the Agricultural Marketing Service, but in 1942 it was transferred back to the BAE. When the BAE was abolished in 1953, its functions were transferred to the second Agricultural Marketing Service. The following two entries describe the only items of the Division found among the cartographic records of the BAE. Not described in this list are maps the BAE began to prepare in 1937 to supplement crop reports. These maps were drawn to show crop or pasture conditions by counties and frequently were flashed out by wire to press associations for publication with crop reports. A number of them, particularly those dating from the late 1940’s, are interfiled among the textual records of the Division. 52. Published State maps showing counties 53.

Included is a map showing the locations of potato shipping areas of the United States in 1935. Also included is an incomplete map indicating State origins of fruits and vegetables received by truck at San Francisco in 1936. DIVISION OF FARM MANAGEMENT AND COSTS Farm management research originated in the Office of Farm Management in the period 1905-22 under the guidance of W. J. Spillman. Early studies in this area were conducted on farm efficiency and the effect of external conditions on farms. When the BAE was established in 1922, farm management research was assigned to the new Division of Farm Management. In 1924 the Division was combined with the Division of Cost of Production to form the Division of Farm Management and Costs. It retained this title until 1953 when its functions were transferred to the Agricultural Research Service. The functions of the Division included analyzing the organization of the most effective farm units and returns from farms differing in size, type, and location, compiling an inventory of the existing types of farming CENTRAL OFFICE 17 regions, and studying the influence of the land use adjustment programs of the 1930’s and 1940’s on farm economics. The Division worked closely with the Division of Land Economics in these fields. 56. Maps of the United States showing types of farming regions. 1930-49. 15 items.

In the reorganization of 1938-39 the section was renamed the Tobacco Division; shortly thereafter all research functions in connection with tobacco were transferred to the newly established Agricultural Marketing Service. 62. Map of the Eastern United States showing 1932. 1 item. A published map. Sixty-three tobacco-growing districts. kinds of tobacco-growing areas are identified in the margins and keyed to the map. DIVISION OF STATISTICAL AND HISTORICAL RESEARCH When the BAE was established in 1922, historical research in agriculture and the collection of important agricultural statistics, both domestic and foreign, were assigned to the new Division of Statistical and Historical Research. The Chief of the Division, O. C. Stine, had been in charge of the historical work of the Division of Agricultural History and Geography of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics and also had been Acting Chief of the Division of Records and Research of the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates for a brief period before the BAE was established. The functions of the Division included maintaining files on matters of permanent statistical value collected by various BAE divisions and gathering, correlating, and interpreting information on foreign competition and markets obtained from U.S. representatives stationed abroad. The research on foreign agriculture, which the Bureau of Statistics had conducted before 1922, was transferred in 1930 to the newly established Foreign Agricultural Division, later called the Foreign Agricultural Service. (Several of the following maps relating to foreign areas are annotated with the name of L. K. Thompson, who was in charge of foreign crop records and analysis during the 1920’s.) 63.

The graphs relating to Oregon appeared in L. T. Jessup, “Precipitation and Tree Growth in the Harney Basin, Oregon,” Geographical Review (April 1935). DIVISION OF STATE AND LOCAL PLANNING Land use planning based on local participation began in the Program Planning Division of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration in the mid-l930’s. In 1938 the BAE was made the central land use planning agency for the Department of Agriculture, and in July of that year the Mount Weather Agreement was made with the Land Grant College Association to establish State and county land use planning committees in all States and in agricultural counties. The Division of State and Local Planning was established under the BAE in the early part of 1939 to assume the planning work of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration and to direct this enlarged program of intensive and unified planning. The local planning committees consisted of both farmers who were knowledgeable about local problems and State and Agriculture Department representatives who provided guidance. Area mapping, land classification, and the formulation of adjustment goals had been started by 447 counties in 1939 and by 976 counties as of 1940. The role of the Division was largely auxiliary; it included providing assistance in mapping, reproducing and transmitting maps to local and Federal agencies to whom they would be of most use, and maintaining a current fund of textual and cartographic information. The Service Unit of the Division transferred county land use planning information on to State, regional, and national maps. The maps created as a result of the program were used in recommending sites for Federal land purchase and development projects, in providing information useful to the Farm Security Administration and local zoning boards who desired to limit farming to favorable land, and in planning local land taxes, road construction, farm extension work, and national forest boundaries. In February 1942 the name of the Division was changed to the Agricultural Planning Field Service. Because of policy disagreements and a lack of Congressional funding, the newly created Field Service was abolished in the summer of 1942, but some of the local committees continued their activities after that date 70.

The first phase of the land use mapping and classification program consisted of intensive mapping ol' the existing land use areas of participating counties to serve as a geographic setting for future local planning. Apparently only a few maps of this type became a part of the files of the BAE. Included are maps of Williamstown, Mass., Deuel, Harlan, Scotts Bluff, and Thayer Counties, Nebr., Carroll and Sullivan Counties, N. Dak., Clark, Hocking, Morrow, Noble, Paulding, Pickaway, Seneca, and Wyandot Counties, Ohio, and Bristol County, R.I. 72. Recommended land use classification maps compiled by State and county planning com¬ mittees. 1938-41. 437 items. The second phase of the land use mapping and classification program called for an analysis of the previously mapped land use areas and a compilation of classification maps ac¬ cording to the following categories of recommended land use adjustments: (A) areas in farms which were unsuited for farming and which should be put to some other use, (B) areas neither in farms nor suited 20 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE for farming, (C) areas in farms which were of either questionable or unknown suitability for farming, (D) areas not in farms but suitable for development into farms, and (E) areas in farms which should remain in farms, with or without adjustments in agricultural practices. Most of the maps are of counties and are based on county highway maps; only five are State maps. Some are manuscript, but many were drafted and published by the BAE. A few of the maps have no key but use the following color scheme for the categories described above: A-blue, B—green, C—red, D-orange, and E-yellow. Not all of the maps categorize land according to this standard classifica¬ tion, and some show greater detail in existing land use than others. Further detailed information concerning the purposes of the maps and the instructions by which they were compiled are given in Work Outline Number One Covering an Area Mapping and Classi¬ fication Project Recommended for County Agricul¬ tural Land Use Planning Committees (January 1939), prepared by the Land Economics Division and other agencies concerned with land use planning. Copies of this book are filed among the textual records of the BAE and in the Cartographic Archives Division of the National Archives. Arranged alphabetically by State and there¬ under by county. A list of the areas covered appears in appendix I. 73. Miscellaneous county maps prepared by county planning committees in connection with land use studies. 1936-41. 65 items. Manuscript and published maps, often complementary to the land classification maps described in entries 71 and 72, showing a variety of agricultural and other information, in¬ cluding landownership, land use, soils, roads, and boundaries of planning communities. Arranged alpha¬ betically by State. The maps are described in ap¬ pendix II. 74. Map of south central Florida. ca. 1939. 1 item. A photoprocessed map with an annotation indicating the watershed of the Kissim¬ mee River. The base map is one of a series of maps compiled in Region V of the Resettlement Adminis¬ tration entitled “Land Classification According to Type of Land Use Problem.” (See also entry 111.). It also shows towns, roads, railroads, elevation contours, water depths in Lake Okeechobee, drainage districts, and canals, and it covers an area of Florida from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic. DIVISION OF LAND ECONOMICS The Division of Land Economics was established on July 1, 1919, in the Office of Farm Management at the time of the latter’s reorganization as the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. When the BAE was established in 1922 the Division was enlarged by consolidation with two other units (the Division of Farm Labor and the geography section of the Division of Agricultural History and Geography) which had also existed since 1919 as part of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. L. C. Gray was in charge ol the Division from 1922 until 1937. The Division was initially entitled “Land Utilization,” but its name was soon changed to “Land Economics.” Its purpose was to study the broad problems of the economic relations of man to the land. From its creation until 1937 it conducted studies that included the following subjects: land resources and utilization, land settlement and colonization, landownership and tenancy, land valuation, the supply and welfare of farm laborers, and the water supply of the arid grazing lands of the public domain. In 1927 the Division organized a section on local land utilization and regional planning, a forerunner of the land use planning programs of the 1930’s. The Division was also instrumental in calling the Land Utilization Conference of 1931, which resulted in the establishment of the National Resources Board. Gray, while remaining Chief of the Division, also headed the Land Policy Section of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration and the land utilization program of the Resettlement Administration. When the land utilization program of the Resettlement Administration was transferred to the BAE in 1937, the Land-Use Planning Section of the Resettlement Administration’s Land Utilization Division merged with the Division of Land Economics, greatly expanding the latter’s staff. Included in the transfer was a section devoted to CENTRAL OFFICE 21 land classification and mapping. At the same time, research in water utilization and flood control was assigned to the Division. During the next year all agricultural planning work relating to the economic relationship between population and land resources and to the location of sites for land utilization projects was concentrated in the Division. The administration of those projects was transferred to the Soil Conservation Service in October 1938, but land classification and land use planning remained a part of the Division’s work. (The cartographic records of some of the local land utilization studies the Division conducted are described below and among the records of the western regional office.) About the year 1941, however, partly because the task of land planning at the county level had been assumed by the Division of State and Local Planning, emphasis in the Division of Land Economics reverted to broad research in land utilization and away from specific planning problems. In addition to investigations relating to the war effort during the 1940’s and to the war’s effect on settlement and land utilization, the Division continued its long-range studies until 1953, the year the BAE was abolished. Its functions were then transferred to the Production Economics Research Branch of the Agricultural Research Service. General Records n.d. 5 items. Five manuscript duplicates. Sites are located by circles whose sizes and colors denote acreage and- purchaser. The work of the Division included studies of the approximately 50,000 families displaced from war purchase sites. 80.

Carleton P. Barnes, formerly of the Division of Land Economics of the BAE, headed the Unit. When the Land-Use Planning Section was merged with the Division of Land Economics in 1937, the Land Classification Unit became one of four sections devoted to land problems. At this time Barnes left the staff to eventually join the Land Use Coordinator’s Office and was replaced by J. J. Haggerty as acting head of the section. The section’s functions included giving guidance to land classification surveys, conducting experimental work in types of area classification, compiling bibliographies related to land classification, and developing regional and national summaries, largely in map form, of land use and of proposed land use changes. Each of the Resettlement Administration’s 1 1 regional offices had one or more men giving attention to land classification activities. The records indicate that in the summer of 1941 the Land Classification Section was merged with the Land Resources and Utilization Section to form the new Land 98. Map of the United States showing submarginal cropland. 1933. 1 item. An early manuscript map pre¬ pared by C. P. Barnes while he was an assistant agricultural economist in the BAE. Based on a 1933 map by Barnes and Marschner entitled “Natural Land Use Areas of the United States” (see entry 154), the map shows four categories of land with varying percentages of submarginal cropland as of Novem¬ ber 10, 1933. Because the map is generalized, small irrigable areas amidst the dry submarginal lands of the Western States are not shown. 99. Land Use Planning maps prepared under the direction of State land planning consultants. 1934-39. 76 items. Included are maps of Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, Mis¬ sissippi, and Texas. Similar maps relating to the Western States are described in entry 241. State land planning consultants (later called land use planning specialists) were appointed in each State in 1934 under the National Resources Board to provide basic information for a report to the Presi¬ dent on national planning, including an inventory of the natural resources of the country and suggestions for solving problems of land use. In 1935 the planning consultants were transferred to the Land- Use Planning Section of the Resettlement Adminis¬ tration. They were transferred in 1937-38 to the BAE when all land planning functions were centralized there, particularly in the Division of Land Economics. Preliminary reports and maps from each State in the period 1934-35 were followed by additional reports in 1936 and further map revisions as late as Utilization Section, of which Haggerty became head. 1939. The reports and maps were prepared according to directions given in Bulletin A-13 of the National Resources Board and in Field Instructions LU-30 and LU-35 of the Resettlement Administration. The reports focused on agricultural problem areas, areas suitable for closer settlement, and areas being occu¬ pied and settled in the period 1930-35. Copies of the reports were kept on file by the Land Classification Section and are now among the textual records of the Division of Land Economics. (See National Archives Preliminary Inventory No. 104, Records of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics , entry 171.) Many of the maps are keyed to area-by-area descriptions in the textual reports. In the case of the problem area maps, information about specific areas shown can be found only by consulting the reports; however, with one or two exceptions, the distribution of types of problems can be discerned from the maps. Maps giving supplemental information about physical conditions and land use are often included. The bound textual reports often contain additional maps, not described separately here. The maps are listed alphabetically by State in appendix III. Preliminary national problem area maps created in an attempt to synthesize the information given on the State maps are described in entry 100. 100. Maps of the United States compiled from reports of State land planning consultants showing areas of recommended changes in land utilization. 1935. 11 items. Based on early reports of land planning consultants appointed in each State in 1934 to inventory problem areas and to recommend adjustments in land use. (See entry 99.1 These maps CENTRAL OFFICE 25 are noted as preliminary and subject to revision. Several of the maps apparently were prepared by C. P. Barnes in January and February of 1935 before he left the BAE staff to join the Resettlement Ad¬ ministration. Included are maps showing principal areas reported suitable for new or closer settlement and the types of clearing or reclamation required for such settlement; areas suitable for continued occupancy but in need of drainage, flood control, or water supply; areas in which 20 percent or more of the farms should be larger to provide adequate family living and soil maintenance; areas in which erosion should be checked by changes in farm practices rather than in farm sizes; locations of distressed irrigation or drainage districts needing financial help; areas where improved management of forest land would aid agriculture; and areas in which some farmland should be withdrawn and put to other uses. 101. Maps of the United States showing boundaries of land use problem regions. 1935. 3 items. Two photoprocessed versions and a duplicate map showing the following defined as having similar problems of poor farmland: Lake States, Atlantic and Gulf coast, and western cutover regions and the dry land farming, ranching, rolling Gulf Coastal Plain and old plantations, northern Appalachian, and southern Appalachian-Ozark re¬ gions. 102. “Land-Use Adjustment Areas Map of the United States.” 1940. 4 items. Manuscript, preliminary edi¬ tions, and published copies of a map that was intended to be a guide to general land use planning for public agencies in the interests of conservation, effective use of resources, and farm income. Its use, however, was minimal since the land use planning program was largely discontinued during the early 1940’s. The map was derived from the BAE’s previous work in mapping natural land use areas and types of farming regions, from problem area maps compiled by State land use planning specialists, and from intensive local land classification analyses. It was revised in BAE field offices. The following adjustments are recommended on the map: (1) internal farm adjustment, (2) minor farm reorganization, (3) major farm reorganization. (4) irrigation adjustment, (5) grazing-farming re¬ organization, (6) grazing adjustment, (7) forest- farming reorganization, (8) forest adjustment, and (9) rural-urban adjustment. Included is a description of the map. The background and preparation of the map are explained in the Report of the Chief of the Bureau, 1940. 103. Published map of the proposed Great Smoky Mountains National Park annotated to show submarginal land recommended for Govern¬ ment purchase. ca. 1931. 1 item. 104. Maps of Fergus County, Mont. ca. 1936. 23 items. The maps were prepared by the Montana Agricultural Experiment Station and the Montana land use planning specialist and were kept on file by C. R. Gardell of the Land Utilization Program. Some of the Maps were used by C. P. Barnes in “Land Use Planning Publication No. 6,” which was concerned with the use of aerial photography in land classification. The following subjects are mapped: suggested land use; land classification; yield per acre and acreage of wheat by townships, 1928-35; number of farms and average wheat production per farm by townships; precipitation; idle cropland; acreage of summer fallow land; location, size, and income factors of farms and ranches, 1928-32; farms pro¬ ducing less than 1,000, 1,000-2,000, and over 2,000 bushels of wheat per year, 1928-35; gross income per farm; landownership patterns; location of cooperative grazing districts; status of tax delinquency and mortgage indebtedness; public utilities; population distribution by age groups; and land use adjustment areas. In addition there are illustrations showing procedures for making a township map and a map showing detailed land use in 6 square miles of the county. 105. Land classification maps of the White Butte- Bison area of Perkins County, S. Dak. ca. 1936-37. 12 items. A series of large-scale maps compiled in the Resettlement Administration covering six townships that comprised the bulk of a land utilization project area. The maps apparently were used as experimental or demonstration maps in land classification and are labeled “Six selected 26 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE townships in the Great Plains.” Shown in detail are such subjects as the pattern, acreage, and type of operating units, operating units of adequate and inadequate size, number of owners per operating unit, locations of schools, towns, and churches, occupied and unoccupied farmsteads, and recommended use for croplands. 106.

An incomplete set of published, manuscript, and annotated maps accumu¬ lated by the Land Classification Unit while it was a part of the Resettlement Administration; a few of the maps were added to the files after the unit became a section of the Division of Land Economics in 1937. Although some of the maps were created in the Land Utilization Division of the Resettlement Adminis¬ tration, most are reference maps published by other Federal and State agencies. A few are duplicate copies of maps described elsewhere in this list. Gaps in the numbering sequence suggest that these maps are the only records remaining of what was probably a more extensive file. Arranged by an alpha-numeric designation under the following categories: (A) problem areas in need of adjustment, (C) forest and vegetation cover, (D) soil and physical landscape features, (E) land- ownership, (H) base maps, (1) crop yield, (J) land use classification, and (M) physical and cultural regions of the United States. A list of the maps, including the source and date of preparation for each, appears in appendix IV. 110. Miscellaneous land classification maps. 1936-37. 5 items. Photoprocessed and an¬ notated land classification maps prepared in the headquarters of Regions IV and V of the Resettle¬ ment Administration by representatives of the Land- Use Planning Section.

A list prepared in Region V of the Resettlement Administration describing in detail the seven categories used in a series of maps that classify land “according to type of land use problem” for the States of Alabama, Florida (and parts thereof), Georgia, and South Carolina. CENTRAL OFFICE 27 Land Utilization Section A Land Resources and Utilization Section was created in the Division of Land Economics soon after its establishment in 1919. Oliver E. Baker, formerly in charge of the geographic work of the Office of Farm Management’s Division of Agricultural History and Geography, headed the section from the early 1920’s apparently to the mid-1930's. Subjects of investigation included the rate and direction of agricultural expansion, the distribution of land among crops, pasture, and forests, and the relationships of these land uses to soils and physical conditions. Work was also continued on the Atlas of American Agriculture, which had been started under the Office of Farm Management. In the late 1930's the section consisted of only two or three staff members. In 1937 a Land Classification Unit was transferred from the Resettlement Administration and became a separate section in the Division of Land Economics. The records indicate that in the summer of 1941 this Land Classification Section was abolished and its personnel merged with those of the Land Resources and Utilization Section to form a new and enlarged Land Utilization Section. The new section was at first headed by J. J. Haggerty (former head of the Land Classification Section) and after World War II by Hugh H. Wooten. Area analysis, research, and mapping continued in the section until 1953 when the BAE was abolished. The maps under this section are arranged in three categories: general records, the records of Oliver E. Baker, and the records of Francis J. Marschner. Baker, the head of the section, and Marschner, a member of the section and also the chief cartographer for the Division of Land Economics, either compiled or originated the maps grouped under their respective names. General Records 112. Map entitled “Adjustment Areas and Subregions—Southern States.” 1942. 1 item. A photoprocessed map, with minor annotations, covering the Southeast and South Central States.

Included are an undated map of the Indian Territory (Oklahoma) showing the distribution of woodland copied from a published map accompanying the 21st Annual Report of the U.S. Geological Survey in 1899; a 1927 manuscript map of Wisconsin showing forest types, prairies, and swamplands; a 1940 published Forest Service map of North Carolina entitled “Major Forest Types” re¬ tained in the library of the Division of Land Economics; an undated manuscript map of North Carolina showing the percentage of cleared land by townships; a forest cover map of northern Alabama, ca. 1940, annotated to show the distribution of “gray” and “red” land in relation to forest distri¬ bution in the area north of the Tennessee River; a 1942 manuscript map of New England showing forest regions, apparently copied from a map compiled by the Society of American Foresters; and a manuscript map of Wayne County, Mo., showing the distribution of cleared and tree-covered lands in 1940, prepared by the Office of Forest Supervisor, Clark National Forest. 119. Geological and miscellaneous reference maps published by State agencies. 1876-1940. 67 items. State and county maps showing geological and geomorphic features, soils, forest types, and miscellaneous land use information. Prepared chiefly by State geological surveys and agricultural colleges. Many of the maps were pub¬ lished during the period 1895-1921, and some were probably accumulated in the Office of Farm Manage¬ ment before they were transferred to the BAE in 1922. The earliest map in the series is a 12-sheet map of Wisconsin published in 1876 by the Wisconsin Geological Survey, which includes five large-scale sheets devoted to the State’s lead region. The maps are listed in appendix V by subject and thereunder alphabetically by State. Records of Oliver E. Baker Oliver E. Baker, the early head of the Land Resources and Utilization Section, brought the study of regional agricultural geography and land utilization from the University of Wisconsin to the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics and subsequently to the Division of Land Economics in the BAE. He planned, edited, and contributed to the Geography of the World’s Agriculture (1917), the Atlas of American Agriculture (1918-36), a series of “Graphic Summaries” of agricultural information (1915-21 and 1931-39) based on censuses of agriculture, and numerous articles in the Yearbook of Agriculture, all published by the Department of Agriculture. His articles also appeared in such publications as the Geographical Review and Economic Geography. During the 1930’s Baker’s interest in rural population problems grew, and the records indicate that by 1939 he was a ranking member of the Division of Farm Population and Rural Welfare. He also served as president of the Association of American Geographers in 1932. and in 1942 he founded the geography department at the University of Maryland. [See S. S. Visher and Charles Y. Hu, “Oliver Edwin Baker, 1883-1949,” Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 40:328-334 (December 1950).] Many of the following are small-scale dot maps of the United States prepared in connection with the various “Graphic Summaries” of American agriculture published during the mid-1930’s. Published copies of several of the “Graphic Summaries” are filed among the cartographic records of the Office of the Secrctaiy of Agriculture, Record Group 16. Earlier cartographic records of Baker are described in this list among the records of the Division of Agricultural History and Geography of the Office of Farm Management (entries 5-32).

Records of Francis J. Marschner Many of the cartographic records of the Land Utilization Section reflect the work of Francis J. Marschner, an agricultural economist, geographer, chief cartographic draftsman for the Division of Land Economics for nearly its entire history, and former vice president of the Association of American Geographers. Marschner immigrated from Austria in 1915 and immediately began cartographic work with what was to become the Division of Agricultural History and Geography of the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics. He joined the BAE when that Division became part of the Division of Land Economics in 1922. At the Department of Agriculture Marschner became intensely involved in the cartographic phase of land utilization research, and he promoted the use and development of cartography as a tool in agricultural economics. He remained involved in land utilization research after the abolition of the BAE in 1953, continuing his work as a collaborator with the Agricultural Research Service and the Economic Research Service until his death in 1966. [See James R. Anderson, “Francis Joseph Marschner, 1882-1966,” Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 57:635-636 (September 1967).J 32 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE All of the existing cartographic records in the National Archives that are known to have been created by Marschner while he was on the staff of the Department of Agriculture have been centralized in the records of the BAE and are described below and in entries 6-7 of this list. The maps in this section, however, represent only a portion of Marschner’s cartographic work, and it is probable that a number of other unsigned maps described elsewhere in this list were drafted by or in collaboration with Marschner. 147. Soil map of the United States. ca. 1921. 2 items. Manuscript and published versions of a map which shows 31 categories of soils and which accompanied 0. E. Baker’s article in the 1921 Yearbook of Agriculture entitled “A Graphic Summary of American Agriculture.” Compiled by C. F. Marbut and associates in the Soil Survey and drafted by Marschner. Related maps are described in entry 152. 148. “Physiographic Diagram of the United States” by A. K. Lobeck. 1921. 1 item. A provisional edition published in 1921 at the University of Wisconsin at the scale of 1:3,000,000 and signed by Marschner. 149. Maps relating to studies of railroad land grants and land use in the Western States. ca. 1920-27. 15 items. One of the maps is annotated by Marschner. (Marschner was one of several members of the Division who investigated railroad colonization and the settlement of railroad lands during the 1920’s.) The file includes a 1920 map of the United States showing railroad systems and rate zones; a series of maps showing lands granted to the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific Railroads in southern California, 1923-27, and annotated to show agricul¬ tural land use in some areas; four undated large-scale maps of parts of Montana showing lands granted to the Northern Pacific Railway and related historical information, annotated with unidentified numbers and symbols in each section and township that apparently relate to resource use; a map of Oregon dated 1904 showing land grants to the Northern Pacific Railroad, the Dalles Military Road, the Oregon Central Military Road, the Oregon and California Railroad, and others, annotated to show land use in some western and central counties and indexed with the locations of approximately 900 communities; a chart published by the Oregon Short Line Railroad showing historical variations in the level of the Great Salt Lake and precipitation in the basin monthly from 1850 to 1915; two undated maps of northern Arizona showing landholdings of the lessees and purchasers of lands of the Santa Fe Pacific Railroad Company, the St. Louis and San Francisco Railway Company, and the Aztec Land and Cattle Company and also showing forest lands, Indian lands, and sheep driveways. In addition there is a separate description of the use of public lands shown on an Arizona-New Mexico map, which cannot be located. 150. Maps of Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Florida, and Louisiana annotated to show natural land cover. n.d. 6 items. Unidentified maps possibly relat¬ ing to Marschner’s work in mapping natural land use areas of the United States (see entry 154) or wetlands and drainage in the United States (see entry 170). Included are published General Land Office base maps annotated to show prairie, wet prairie, marsh, swamp, and, in some cases, forest types. The base maps were published between 1905 and 1916, but the annotations are not dated, and much of the information is faded and illegible. Only the northwest part of the Indiana map is annotated. The Illinois map also contains unexplained numbers at various points. 151. Maps of Arizona and New Mexico annotated to show land use. n.d. 2 items. Two published base maps dated 1912 and 1921 and annotated by Marschner at an unspecified date to show land use and vegetation cover in some areas. Certain areas are described as having “dense brush,” “rocky soil,” or “good graz¬ ing,” and unidentified numbers (which may represent rainfall) appear at various points. The limits of the Atlantic and Pacific Railway grant are also shown. 152. Maps drafted for the Atlas of American Agri¬ culture. 1924-31. 38 items. The atlas was prepared as a series of separate sheets beginning in 1918 under the supervision of O. E. Baker, and selected maps CENTRAL OFFICE 33 concerning the physical basis for agriculture were brought together in a single volume in 1936. Included among those maps Marschner drafted while he was on the staff of the BAE is a section of the atlas issued in 1924 entitled “Natural Vegetation,” done in associa¬ tion with H. L. Shantz and Raphael Zon. This section contains a series of separate maps marked “for the correction of the U.S. Vegetation Map,” along with a duplicate of the latter. Also included are two copies of the 12-sheet “Soil Map of the United States,” compiled by C. F. Marbut and Marschner for publica¬ tion in 1931. Maps Marschner drafted for the atlas before the establishment of the BAE are described in entry 6, and an earlier soil map related to the Marbut map appears in entry 147. 153. Manuscript maps showing population density and agricultural regions of the world. ca. 1925. 2 items. Compiled by Marschner. The map showing agricultural regions includes such cate¬ gories as nomadic herding, shifting cultivation, sub¬ sistence farming, intensive rice cultivation, and types of commercial farming. 154. Map entitled “Natural Land-Use Areas of the United States” and related records. 1933. 8 items. A published map (scale 1:4,000,000) compiled by C. P. Barnes and Marsch¬ ner and showing 272 regions of the United States based on the physical characteristics of the land which influence land use. This map is one of the earliest published maps covering the entire nation and is designed to show potential land use areas. Included with several final copies are a manuscript version and several preliminary editions. Also included is an unpublished text of 272 pages describing the regions shown on the map. These descriptions appear to be expanded versions of descriptions in the margins of the map. 155. Maps relating to a study of the southern Appalachians. 1933-37. 17 items. Compiled by Marschner in connection with a study of the social, economic, and geographic factors related to land utilization in the Appalachian counties of Alabama, Georgia, Ten¬ nessee, North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Maryland. Included are worksheets, tracings, negative photoprocessed copies, preliminary proofsheets, and a final published edition of a 1933 base map entitled “Topography - The Southern Appalachians.” A manuscript version of the above map compiled in 1936 showing rural density per square mile by means of isolines and a photo- processed map showing “Counties of Study in South¬ ern Appalachians,” prepared for Taylor and Dodson, are also included. A copy of the study and related documents are filed among the textual records of the BAE. (See Preliminary Inventory No. 104, Records of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, entry 180.) 156. Maps showing the original vegetation of Michi¬ gan. 1935 and 1946. 4 items. Based on field notes of the General Land Office surveys of the 19th century. Included are two versions of a map entitled “Original Forests of Michigan” (but showing prairies and swamps as well as forests). One version appears to be a photoprocessed copy of a 1923 Marschner map to which colors were added by “B.O.M.” in January 1935, and the other version is a photostatic copy of the same map redrawn in 1946 by A. D. Perejda, a geographer at Wayne University. Also included are an undated manuscript copy or worksheet without a descriptive legend and an annotated map of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan showing “original vege¬ tation,” published with the 1906 Annual Report of the Geological Survey of Michigan and apparently used as source material. Marschner compiled a similar map of Minnesota, but it is not included in the files. 157. Map of Louisiana showing farm types. 1937. 1 item. A small-scale, photoprocessed map showing 13 categories based on crops grown. An annotation signed by Marschner explains that a type of farm region is determined by 30 percent or more of the harvested cropland’s being devoted to a crop. 158. Maps relating to use of public lands in the United States. ca. 1935-46. 3 items. Included are an undated manuscript map showing “Public Lands Under Public Use and Indian Reservations,” prepared for the National Resources Board and signed by Marschner, and two copies of a map of the United States entitled “Major Land Management Activities of Public Agen¬ cies,” published in 1939 by the Department of 34 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE Agriculture, one copy of which is annotated by Marschner to show “ungrazed areas in the National Forests and adjacent lands - 1946.” State maps showing land management activities of public agencies are filed among the records of the U.S. Forest Service, Record Group 95. (See Prelimi¬ nary Inventory No. 167, Cartographic Records of the Forest Service, entry 128.) 159. Annotated maps of New Mexico. n.d. 4 items. Base maps of New Mexico dating from 1929 to 1943 and annotated at an unspecified date with a variety of symbols, some showing land use and elevation, some unidentified. These maps appear to be preliminary worksheets Marschner used in the preparation of maps showing land use in the State. Included is a large-scale 1943 map published by the U.S. Geological Survey entitled “A Reconnais¬ sance and Elevation Map of Southeastern New Mexico,” covering Eddy, Chaves, Lea, and parts of Roosevelt and DeBaca Counties, and showing names of residents, ranches, schools, mines, refineries, roads, railroads, and numerous spot elevations. 160. Maps showing physiographic and land use areas in the South Central United States. ca. 1941. 9 items. Compiled by Marschner. Included are a manuscript map of the region of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana, showing 21 subregional divisions and a set of eight published State maps annotated with red lines duplicating the subregional boundaries and apparently used in con¬ nection with the compilation of the regional map. The base maps used consist of maps of Arkansas showing topography, mineral industries, and oil and gas pipelines (1930), geology (1929), and soil erosion reconnaissance (1934), maps of Oklahoma showing physiographic regions (1912), soil areas (n.d.), and forest types (1940), and maps of Missouri showing erosion (1935) and geology (1939). 161. Map of the natural land use regions of Arkansas. ca. 1941. 2 items. Compiled by Marschner. A published map in which types of farming are shown for each of several physiographic provinces. Included is a published map with a description of the surface and subsurface geology of Arkansas, which Marschner apparently used for reference. 162. Atlas of Agricultural Information-Appalachian Region. 1942. 2 items. A first edition prepared by the Regional Interbureau Committee on Postwar Planning to which the BAE was major contributor. Contains tables and small-scale maps of the region consisting of Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia, showing agricultural geography and rural economy in the period 1939-42. Most of the material is organized according to nine physiographic provinces and 45 further subdivisions called resource areas, intermediate between State and county; in some cases information is shown by county. Subjects shown on the maps include soil groups, erosion, growing seasons, drainage basin boundaries, forest types and cover, oil- and gasfields, coalfields, hydroelectric plants, arable land, popula¬ tion/cropland ratio, tractor power used, road and rail nets, value added by manufacturing, value of farm products, farm income, types and density of employ¬ ment, underemployment, tenant and sharecropper farm areas, changes in population (1940-42), educa¬ tion levels, hospitals and physicians, vocational schools, production credit associations, recreational areas, farm relief measures (including Farm Security Administration borrowers and services, Agricultural Adjustment Administration payments, Farm Credit Administration loans, and food distribution and food stamp programs), and field activities of the Rural Electrification Administration and the Tennessee Valley Authority. Subjects included in the tables are numbers of farms, land use acreages, abandoned farms and reasons for abandonment, wholesale and retail trade, types and numbers of industries, types of employ¬ ment, growth of population from 1840, average conditions of dwelling units, percentages of farms having automobiles, electricity, and telephones, per¬ centages of farms adjacent to roads, and food expenditures. Also included is a separate manuscript map showing a version of the resource areas boundary map; this may represent the preliminary aerial pattern developed by Marschner that was used as a guide in the presentation of material in the atlas. CENTRAL OFFICE 35 163. Map entitled “Livelihood Areas of the United States.” 1943. 1 item. A published map (scale 1:7,500,000) Marschner prepared to accompany a publication of the National Resources Planning Board entitled Area Analysis-A Method of Public Works Planning (Technical Paper No. 6, revised) by Charles C. Colby and Victor Roterus. The map shows 235 numbered regions of the United States based on an experimental method of economic area analysis de¬ scribed in the technical paper. The regions are listed in the margins and keyed to the map. A copy of the paper with an attached copy of the map is filed among the cartographic records of the National Resources Planning Board, Record Group 187. 164. Maps showing the seasonal use of grazing lands in the western range. 1905 and 1947. 3 items. A manuscript map of the Western States prepared by Marschner in 1947, with a smaller worksheet showing only Nevada, and a large-scale published map of the Western States in color, compiled by Albert F. Potter of the Bureau of Forestry in 1905, and annotated and used by Marschner as source material. The 1905 map includes information about grazing lands either dependent on tank water and snow or developed by wells and windmills. A later published version of the 1947 map was included in a publication by Marschner entitled Land Use and Its Patterns in the United States, 1959. (See entry 169). 165. Map entitled “Major Land Uses of the United States” and related worksheets. 1947-58. 17 items. Compiled by Marschner. Originally published in 1950 at a scale of 1:5,000,000, the map shows types of pasture, forests, drylands, irrigated lands, swamps, and marshlands by means of colors and the distribution of croplands (based on the 1945 Census of Agriculture) by the dot method, with each dot representing 10,000 acres. Included are a base map, worksheets on tracing paper, a manuscript version, proofsheets, several preliminary editions, a copy of the published map. and a 1958 reprint used by the Agricultural Research Service as a sheet of the National Atlas of the United States. The map was generalized from a series of State maps described in entry 166 of this list. A forerunner of the map, also compiled by Marschner, entitled “Major Land Use Areas, Western United States” (1948) appears in published form in Irrigation Agriculture in the West (Department of Agriculture Miscellaneous Publication No. 670), filed among the cartographic records of the Office of the Secretary of Agriculture, Record Group 16. 166. Manuscript State maps used in the compilation of “Major Land Uses of the United States.” 1947-50. 36 items. Based on early aerial photo index sheets (the earliest of which dated from the late 1930’s) and used by Marschner as an intermediate step in the preparation of the national map described in entry 165. These maps provide a detailed record of land use patterns in the various States; the detail in mapping is greater than on the national map, which required a degree of generalization. The maps were prepared at a scale of 1:1,000,000 and cover all contiguous States except the following: Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mon¬ tana, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. The New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming maps are unfinished and show very little information. The maps are arranged alphabetically by State; Vermont is combined with New Hampshire, New Jersey with Pennsylvania, Delaware with Maryland, and Connecticut and Rhode Island with Massachu¬ setts. The following is a summation of the land use symbols appearing on various maps: A, A-l, or diagonal lines—cropland (over 60 percent crops), AB—crops and grazing (less than 30 percent crops), 1—crops and grazing (30-60 percent crops), 2—crop¬ land, woodland, and pasture, 2-A—mostly cropland with some pasture and woodland, 2-B—mostly wood¬ land with some scattered farms or grazing (less than 30 percent crops), 4-swamp or wet bottom forest, 6- mostly grazing (less than 30 percent crops), 7- open woodland used for grazing, F-forest, Gr-grazing land, M-marsh, Pr-prairie, and W—woodland. 167. Map of the United States entitled “Major Land Use Regions.” 1950. 1 item. Compiled by Marschner. A photoprocessed copy of a map prepared concurrently with Marschner’s map of “Major Land Uses of the United States” (see entry 165), but on which the land use information is generalized into 34 regions in a 36 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE readily reproducible black-and-white pattern. Copies of the map appeared in several publications, including a “Graphic Summary” of agriculture for 1950 pre¬ pared in cooperation with the Bureau of the Census. 168. Maps showing generalized land resource areas of the United States. ca. 1953. 5 items. Compiled by Marschner at a scale of 1:7,500,000. Included are manuscript, work¬ sheet, and revised manuscript copies of a map prepared for publication. Shown are relief and soil areas favorable or unfavorable for crops; the distri¬ bution of swamps and marshes, deserts, arid areas with forage and with stock water, and principal irrigated areas; and isopleth lines connecting points having an annual average of 140, 200, and 260 frost-free days. A slightly differing, small-scale version of the map accompanied an article by Marschner and C. P. Barnes entitled “Our Wealth of Land Re¬ sources,” published in the 1958 Yearbook of the Department of Agriculture. 169. Manuscript maps used in preparation of Marsch- ner’s Land Use and Its Patterns in the United States (Agricultural Handbook No. 153, 1959). ca. 1948-59. 25 items. Marschner compiled or drafted most of the maps. A description of the maps appears in appendix VII, and another map used in the book is described in entry 164. 170. Records relating to wetlands and drainage. 1915-45. 10 items. Marschner at several times in his career (1922-24 and ca. 1943) investigated the reclamation and settlement potential of wetlands, especially in cooperation with L. A. Jones of the Bureau of Agricultural Engineering (later the Soil Conservation Service). Records accumulated include the following: lists prepared in 1922-24 relating to wet, swampy, and overflowed land in the United States and showing acreages by States of areas unfit for cultivation without drainage improvements, areas in need of drainage, and areas of tidal marsh and coastal beach; similar lists relating to wetlands in Virginia showing by county and by resource area the acreages of farm drainage needed, community drain¬ age needed, and lands where drainage is not economi¬ cally feasible; a blueprint map of the Dismal Swamp district in North Carolina, dated 1916, showing drained lands; a map showing drainage surveys of lands ceded to the Chippewa Indians in northern Minnesota conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1907-08, annotated to show “peat” and “open¬ ings” and marked “House Document 27, 61st Con¬ gress, First Session”; a map dated 1941 and prepared by the Arkansas Flood Control Commission showing the drainage system of southeast Arkansas and on which Chicot County is annotated with unidentified lines that appear to be relief contours; and a map dated 1945 showing wetlands and drainage possibil¬ ities in North Carolina. 171. Selected aerial photographs. 1936-46. 17 items. A series of aerial photo¬ graphs of various places of the country taken by the U.S. Geological Survey and other agencies but un¬ identified as to their use or significance. Because several of the photographs are similar to certain photographs used to illustrate land use patterns in Marschner’s book, Land Use and Its Patterns in the United States (see entry 169), these may be photo¬ graphs that were rejected for that purpose. 172. Miscellaneous maps compiled or drafted by Marschner. 1917-57. 18 items. Included are manuscript and published copies of a base map intended to show “life zones” in New Mexico, drafted in 1917 for studies by Vernon Bailey of the Biological Survey but not completed; an undated manuscript topographic map of western Maryland and several photographic copies; an undated manuscript topographic map of north¬ western Colorado and two contour versions of a map used as a base; manuscript base maps of Lander, Eureka, and Pershing Counties, Nev., compiled in 1928 and showing names of ranches, residents, and mines and township and section lines; an undated manuscript map on tracing cloth of the vicinity of London, Laurel County, Ky., showing roads and topography; an undated map of part of Leslie County, Ky., showing locations of houses, traced from the Buckhorn quadrangle; manuscript, work¬ sheet, and photographic negative versions of a base map of the United States showing State boundaries and drainage patterns; and a photoprocessed map of the United States showing 34 categories of land use, along with a sketch map showing dry farming areas of the United States, both of which accompanied a 1957 letter to Paul Ellsworth explaining the distribution of dry farming and pump irrigation in the High Plains of Texas (see also entry 169. map 20). CENTRAL OFFICE 37 173. Miscellaneous cartographic material used by Marschner. n.d. 3 items. Included are manuscript and photoprocessed copies of five pages of tabulations entitled “Areas of Quadrilaterals of the Earth’s Surface of Five Minutes Extent in Latitude and Longitude,” compiled by Marschner for a 1929 article, “The Need for Revising the Areal Figures of the United States by Counties,” a copy of which is among the BAE’s textual records. Also included is a transparent overlay disk meter showing square inches in circular form. Public Finance Section The Public Finance Section, originally established as a unit of the Land Policy Section of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, was transferred to the Resettlement Administration and subsequently to the BAE. Its work involved studying the problems of tax delinquency, negotiating agreements for payments in lieu of taxes, and analyzing the effect of Federal acquisition of land on local government. 174.

Manuscript and photoprocessed maps relating to water facilities plans in the Western States. 1937-43. 75 items. Maps of watersheds and related areas prepared for water facilities area plans. Most of the maps apparently were intended for publication; the published maps described in entry 183 duplicate the information shown on some of these maps. Subjects shown include water and irriga¬ tion facilities, land use, landownership patterns, precipitation, and hydrology, but coverage is incom¬ plete for most of the watersheds. Most of the maps relating to California also appear in the records of Region 7. (See entry 291.) A list of the areas and subjects shown appears in appendix VIII. 183. Published maps and graphs relating to water facilities plans in the Western States. 1939-42. 500 items. These maps are the car¬ tographic portion of water facilities plans for drainage basins. (The plans also include textual and tabular material.) The maps consist of small-scale published sheets filed in one Acco binder with an accompanying location index. Typical items relating to a single drainage basin include: an index map showing the location of the basin within one or more counties; a map showing existing water facilities, such as irriga¬ tion canals, wells, pumping plants, windmills, stock tanks, pipelines, and existing and proposed reservoirs; graphs showing average temperature and precipi¬ tation; a map showing landownership patterns; and a map showing existing land use and proposed land use contingent on successful irrigation programs. Also included for a number of the drainage basins are maps and graphs relating to hydrology, soils, types of farming, land classification, vegetation cover, topog¬ raphy, and plans for future dams. Listed under “Water-Land Resources and Prob¬ lems in South Dakota” are 15 maps and charts dated 1940 covering the entire State and showing precipita¬ tion, land utilization areas, ground water information, stream runoff and measuring stations, irrigation facili¬ ties, and areas with adequate range livestock water facilities.

CENTRAL OFFICE 39 Flood Control Section In 1937 the Division of Land Economics’ Flood Control Section assumed responsibility for the research and planning phase of the program established by the Flood Control Acts of 1936, 1937, and 1938. The Soil Conservation Service and the Forest Service implemented the program. Planning activities included an investigation of possible land use and occupancy adjustments and of other economically feasible measures to reduce Hood and silt damage. The following map is the only item in the map files of the Washington Office that is directly related to the program. A number of administrative maps and maps showing selected watersheds are interfiled among the voluminous textual records of the Flood Control Section but are not described separately here. (See Preliminary Inventory No. 104, Records of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics.) The cartographic records of this program accumulated in the Western regional office are described in entries 292-294 below. 187.

LAND UTILIZATION PROGRAM Between September 1, 1937, and October 6, 1938, the BAE administered the land utilization program of the Department of Agriculture. The program was designed to correct unsuitable land occupancy and use, farm inefficiency, poverty, and soil erosion through a series of projects involving Government purchase of submarginal farmlands and their retirement from farm use. The land utilization program began in 1934 as a joint project of the Land Policy Section of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration’s Program Planning Division and the Federal Emergency Relief Administration. In 1935 the Resettlement Administration (later called the Farm Security Administration) took over the program; administration was assigned to its Land Utilization Division, and research and planning were centered in the Land-Use Planning Section of that Division. On September 1, 1937, by Secretary’s Memorandum 733, the BAE was assigned entire responsibility for the program. The Land Utilization Division was transferred to the BAE, and its functions were divided among several divisions: the administration of projects came under the newly established Divisions of Land Acquisition, Land Development, and Project Organization, and research and planning functions and personnel of the former Land-Use Planning Section were merged with the Land Economics Division. L. C. Gray, who had been head of the Land Utilization Division of the Resettlement Administration, as well as the Chief of the Land Economics Division of the BAE since 1919, became Assistant Chief of the BAE in overall charge of the land utilization program. On October 6, 1938, in order to centralize all conservation activities of the Department, the Secretary directed by Memorandum 785 the transfer of the land utilization program, including the field and project personnel engaged in direct contact with farmers, to the Soil Conservation Service. However, because the BAE at about the same time was reconstituted as the central planning agency of the Department, the personnel involved in planning remained with the Division of Land Economics. A cartographic section of the Land Utilization Division under C. P. Gardell, senior draftsman, retained its separate identity as one of various units in the office of the Assistant Chief during the BAE’s administration of the program. Maps drafted in this unit continued to indicate their source by the letters “L.U.” before the words “Cartography, BAE.” Gardell later briefly joined the Division of Land Economics before becoming an economic geographer for the Office of Foreign Agricultural Relations. Practically all of the maps related to the land utilization program, including administrative maps and individual project maps dating from the beginning of the program, have been centralized in the Records of the Soil Conservation Service, Record Group 114. The following four maps indicate the scope of the program during its administration by the BAE. Related maps are described in this list under the Division of Land Economics, particularly among the records of the Land Classification Section. 40 CARTOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE BAE 188. Maps of the United States showing administra¬ tive regions of the land utilization program. 1938. 2 items. One undated map shows the boundaries of the old Resettlement Administration regions and the BAE regions; a second map shows regional boundaries as they existed in August 1938. (The BAE inherited its regional organization from the Resettlement Administration’s Land Utilization Divi¬ sion, and it retained this geographic administrative structure, with modifications, after the land utiliza¬ tion program was removed from its jurisdiction. See also entry 34 and the discussion under “Records of the Regional Offices.”) 189 . Maps of the United States showing locations of land utilization projects. 1938. 2 items. Shown are projects begun be¬ fore the BAE assumed the land utilization program and projects that originated in the BAE. Records of the Regional Offices of the BAE The BAE inherited the regional organization of the Land Utilization Division of the Resettlement Administration when that program was transferred to the Bureau in 1937. The BAE, however, reduced the number of regions from 11 to seven. The land utilization program and other administrative activities were coordinated by Regional Directors (patterned after the Resettlement Administration) in close cooperation with the various divisions of the Bureau. On April 9, 1939, with the removal of the land utilization program from the BAE’s direct administration, the Regional Directors’ positions were abolished and replaced by “regional analysts,” and the personnel of the regional offices acted as representatives of the various divisions. The records indicate that after 1939 the Division of Land Economics consolidated the seven regions into four “administrative areas” to direct certain of its land programs. The Western Region (Region 7), from which most of the regional cartographic records derive, became an administrative area for these purposes with no change in boundaries. The regional offices were abolished by a memorandum of the Chief of the BAE dated June 30, 1946. Many of the regional records were authorized for disposal by the National Archives, and the only large group of cartographic records retained as a unit were the records of the Western regional office at Berkeley, Calif. ATLANTA OFFICE (REGION 5) The Southeastern Region was created from Regions IV and V of the Resettlement Administration and included Georgia, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee, and for a time Virginia and West Virginia.

Michigan Locations of poor agricultural land and areas of concentrated farm population (1934). Areas in which 20 percent of the farms are on the poorest land (1935). Mississippi State-owned lands (1934). Information is shown at the level of operating units. Revised problem area map (1936). Shows submar¬ ginal land, land suitable for agriculture, land where 20 percent of the farms need change in size or income, distressed drainage districts, and farmland needing reclamation. Texas Problem area maps (1935, 1937, and 1939). The 1935 map shows numerous problems such as poor land, land where farms are too small, areas in financial distress, areas with diminishing underground water supplies, lands in need of public management, and areas where farm settlement should be dis¬ couraged. The 1937 and 1939 maps show areas needing recommended adjustments from farming to grazing or forestry and areas needing increased farm sizes. IV.
